Slivers: A Darkwood Legacy Short Story

THE WOOD ALWAYS REMEMBERS

In 1811, Jonathan Pierce made a bargain with something older than the earth and meaner than anything rumored to be in the mountains for centuries, a Confession Tree rooted deep in the Appalachian dark. He fed it his wife. His sons. His soul. When he finally paid in full, the Tree filed him away in its wood, patient and permanent, waiting. Two centuries later that wood became a mirror. The mirror became slivers. And the slivers found Laurel Briggs.

She had enough jealousy in her heart to wake the dead.

That was exactly the problem.

A new entry in the Darkwood Legacy universe. No prior reading required, but fans of the series will recognize the darkness underneath.
